Hey everyone,

Next Thursday (18th October) at 7.30am is the weekly rip, but this one is the one before Samhain. Now we have glossy posters to go up and I’d like to see them actually go up. What would help that would be for as many people as possible to meet outside the library that morning at that time to poster.
